Absecon’s Memorial Day Parade will take place on Monday, May 31st, starting at 9:00 AM. The parade begins at the American Legion Hall at the corner of Mill Road and New Jersey Avenue, runs down New Jersey Avenue, and concludes at the Veteran’s Park. A Memorial Day program will be held at the park following the parade. We ask that the public maintain safe social distancing during the ceremony. Attendees are welcome to return to the American Legion Hall for refreshments following the program.

The parade will be led by our Grand Marshal Bob Adamo, and will feature the Oakcrest High School Marching Band. Prior to the parade, there will be a Children's Patriotic Bicycle Brigade at 8:15 AM.

Absecon wishes to thank the brave men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice and holds this Memorial Day event annually to honor our nation’s heroes.

If you have any questions please contact Mike Blazeman or Councilman Caleb Cavalieer.

Effective September 15, 2023, New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin and New Jersey State Police Superintendent Colonel Patrick Callahan have issued new training standards to all certified firearms instructors in the state. The new Civilian Carry Assessment and Range Evaluation (CCARE) protocol, a live-range training, replaces the Permit to Carry Safe Handling and Proficiency Qualification protocol (HQC2-modified) issued on July 21, 2023, and is the required range component pursuant to N.J.S.A. 2C:58-4(g). 

As for individuals who completed firearms training prior to July 1, 2023, and whose permit to carry does not expire until after December 22, 2023, they must requalify on the CCARE protocol or the HQC2-modified protocol issued on July 21, 2023. An individual who completed a course of fire prior to the issuance of the CCARE Protocol is deemed to have satisfied N.J.S.A. 2C:58-4(g)(2) if and only if the prior course included the standards set forth in the new CCARE training.
